I voted Magic Johnson because of the 5 Titles and 9 Finals appearences and he was a triple double machine even in the Playoffs (most all time) however depending on how Kobe finishes his career I might put him #1.

Wilt only played 5 of his 16 seasons with the Lakers and it was at the end of his career, he shouldn't be on the list.

Tough choice between Magic and Kareem. I went with Kareem.

Let me preface by saying I loved the Captain, but he was with the Lakers for 4 years, and although solid, not really championship material. In comes Magic, and they win the Title in his very 1st year, including his famous Game 6 of the 1980 NBA World Championship Series against the Sixers. As most know, he filled in at Center(he actually volunteered) when Kareem didn't make the trip from LA to Philly as he had a severely sprained ankle. The result? 42 Points, 15 Boards, and 7 Assists in a 123-107 Laker Victory and the Championship.
